Abstract :
Pharmacists as a pharmacy personnel who do the pharmaceutical work based on Government Regulation No. 51 Year 1999 on Pharmaceutical Works and Regulation of the Health Minister No.889/Menkes/Per/V/2011 concerning the Registration, Practice License and Work License of Pharmaceutical Officer. Pharmacists in doing the pharmaceutical work in a pharmacy must have a Letter of License Practice as a Pharmacist. To obtain a Letter of License Practice as a Pharmacists, a Pharmacists should apply a petition by attaching a letter of recommendation from the professional organization called The Indonesian Pharmacist Association. Granting of recommendations from The Indonesian Pharmacist Association which is regulated in Article 21 of the Regulation of the Health Minister No.889/Menkes/Per/V/2011 could be a barrier in healthy business competition because theres no clear deadline in granting recommendation by The Indonesian Pharmacist Association. That condition could be used by the Officers of The Indonesian Pharmacist Association who are not professional by inhibiting Pharmacists applicant in getting a recommendation as a term of acquiring a Letter of Pharmacist License Practice. As a result, a pharmacist is not able to do pharmaceutical works or to open the pharmacy. By the existence of these barriers caused the existing pharmacy in the market did not have competitors. This is potentially for the exploitation towards the marketting of goods and pharmacy services use or do the monopoly. These conditions could be harmed a new pharmacists who will open a pharmacy in the same market and harmed the society as a consumer.
